In vivo transfer of hepatocyte growth factor gene accelerates proliferation of hepatic oval cells in a 2-acetylaminofluorene/partial hepatectomy model in rats.

abstract：:The possible role of sphingomyelin cycle for the regulation of cell proliferation was investigated in human keratinocytes. The time-dependent breakdown of sphingomyelin was observed in the immortalized human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT as well as in primary human keratinocytes thereby providing evidence that the sphi...

abstract：:There are two common forms of NRH-quinone oxidoreductase 2 (NQO2) in the human population resulting from SNP rs1143684. One has phenylalanine at position 47 (NQO2-F47) and the other leucine (NQO2-L47). Using recombinant proteins, we show that these variants have similar steady state kinetic parameters, although NQO2-L...
